FULL INTERVIEW: Wisconsin GOP Chairman Brian Schimming talks midterms

Published | Video Starts at 00:10

So I want to get started by asking what needs to happen for Republicans in November. Well, really turnout. It's a matter of getting a large turnout. One thing that's flipped over the last several years is that Republicans used to do better in off years and then worse in regular election years. Now we're doing worse in off years and doing better in full election years. So we saw that with Ron Johnson when we got reelect Ron Johnson reelected in 2022. We saw with President Trump when President Trump won Wisconsin in 20, only the second Republican to do so in 40 years. (00:10–00:22)

CLAIM

Asserts a shift in Republican electoral performance trends between off years and full election years.
